It is worth noting that since her separation from Yul, she has garnered widespread support from celebrities, Nigerians, and social media users.
Her birthday in September was marked by a touching gesture from fans who, in collaboration with actress Anita Joseph, gifted her N5 million.
Overwhelmed with emotion, May expressed her gratitude, noting the inexplicable love from people she had never met.
Adding to her list of accomplishments, May successfully launched her first business—a perfume line and shampoo. Her excitement at seeing her business come to life was palpable, reflecting her resilience and determination.
Her journey took a challenging turn with filing a divorce from Yul, who remarried. Amidst the personal turmoil, she faced the heartbreaking loss of her first son, Kambilichukwu, in January.
The tragedy occurred after he had dedicated the night to studying for exams and later joined friends for a game of football, resulting in a sudden and fatal seizure.
May described the loss as the most devastating and traumatic experience of her life.
Despite the hardships, her recent recognition with the Eminent Peace Award stands as a testament to her strength and resilience, garnering well-deserved praise and admiration from her supporters.
